Here are some tips that can help you keep your job:
1. Be an essential and responsible employee. Take on responsibility and position yourself as an employee that the organization can't live without.
2. Maintain a position at the same company to demonstrate reliability and build a strong resume.
3. Be organized and keep an active appointment calendar, a to-do list, and track all of the work you’ve done and the work you have to do.
4. Keep your ears tuned into your work grapevine.
5. Watch your company's sales and profitability.
6. Observe your industry trends and employment opportunities.
7. Keep a close eye on Washington DC or your country's government.
8. Listen skeptically to your employer when you see problems not articulated.
9. If you fear losing your job, take action by updating your resume, exploring alternative job opportunities, talking with your employer or colleagues, and exploring possibilities for an internal transfer to another job at the same company.
10. If you suddenly have less to do, update your resume, network with former bosses and colleagues, and begin your job search.
